If
there
was
a
way
to
give
negative
stars
I
would.
The
ER
of
this
hospital
is
absolutely
ridiculous.
My
wife
went
into
the
ER
on
a
Saturday
afternoon
with
chest
pain,
shortness
of
breath
&
nausea
The
triage
nurse
was
absolutely
the
rudest
person
we
have
ever
came
in
contact
with.
Once
they
got
her
back
into
a
room
she
laid
there
in
pain
for
over
an
hour
before
her
nurse
came
in
&
that
was
only
after
we
had
to
use
the
call
button
to
get
her
into
the
room.
Even
then
she
still
was
not
given
anything
for
pain.
The
nurse
began
to
argue
with
my
wife
&
me.
Finally
the
Dr
came
in
&
ordered
her
a
pain
medicine
right
away.
The
Dr
came
back
in
after
all
the
testing
was
completed
&
said
there
wasn't
anything
wrong
&
sent
my
wife
home.
The
very
next
day,
Mother's
Day
she
began
having
the
same
symptoms
again,
so
this
time
we
took
her
to
Floyd
&
she
was
admitted
for
3
days.
Today
my
wife
went
to
her
general
practitioner
with
worsening
symptoms,
swollen
legs,
ankles
&
feet
so
bad
that
she
could
barely
walk
from
the
pain.
Her
general
practitioner
diagnosed
her
with
congestive
heart
failure.
She
wanted
to
send
her
to
Clark
ER,
then
my
wife
explained
what
happened
the
last
time
she
was
there.
Her
doctor
called
&
spoke
with
the
triage
nurse
about
what
what
was
going
on
with
my
wife
&
the
congestive
heart
failure
&
that
she
required
IV
diuretics.
My
wife
arrived
at
Clark,
&
explained
to
Dr.
McKnight
the
whole
situation
&
he
assured
her
that
she
would
not
be
shoved
out
the
door
again.
That
is
exactly
what
he
did.
He
did
not
even
assess
the
major
swelling
in
her
lower
extremities.
He
ordered
only
a
chest
xray,
no
blood
work
or
any
other
testing.
He
did
not
address
my
wife's
pain
at
all.
He
came
in
to
tell
her
that
she
had
no
fluid
in
her
lungs
&You're
good"
and
walked
away.
Her
nurse
came
in
&
very
roughly
began
ripping
the
ekg
&
heart
monitor
pads
off
her.
My
wife
asked
her
to
stop,
but
the
nurse
kept
trying
to
pull
her
gown
up
&
said
"I'm
just
trying
to
get
these
off
of
you."
My
wife
had
to
yell
at
her
to
stop
touching
her.
Her
nurse
then
stated
"I
don't
understand
why
you
are
so
unhappy
with
your
results."
My
wife
asked
if
Dr.
McKnight
even
consulted
with
her
general
practitioner.
The
nurses
response
was
"He
is
a
doctor,
he
is
perfectly
capable
of
making
a
diagnosis
&
does
not
need
to
consult
with
a
nurse
practitioner
on
how
to
treat
his
patients."
Needless
to
say
my
wife
was
in
tears.
Clark
provides
the
absolute
WORST
service
of
any
hospital
we've
been
too.
My
wife
called
&
left
messages
for
the
director
of
the
ER
&
also
the
administrative
assistant.
We
will
not
be
returning
to
that
ER
for
any
reason
whatsoever.
